As bad as you think TNA was.RAW was very very very Boring last night.

Nah wasn't ripping into TNA as much you think, just that it couldn've been slightly better in parts.
There's obviously a minor revolution happening in TNA at the moment, so there might be a few things botched along the way.

I hardly watch Raw or any other WWE show these days, so can't really compare, but I'm not surprised it was boring!

Well The Miz was the best part .

Surely with TNA all the old names wont wrestling like the Nasty Boys ,Val Venus and my all time Favourite Flair WOOHOOOO All to old.
Scot Halls like me to much hanging over the belt .But I may still go and see him whne he comes here .Xpoc or Sean whatever he could still wrestle.

TNA knockouts news Angelina Love has be re signed if I hadn't posted that already .

[Wedgie]

Initial ratings details has Raw with a usual 3.6 (despite bring Brett Hart back) and TNA with a 1.5 which exceeded all expectation (most expected about .7).
TNA had 2.9 million watching at one stage which is a record.

Probably hard to make any conclusions from the first night but great signs for TNA.

possibly a downfall for tna is the fact it seems to be starting to be ''an old boys club'' with some young blokes in there as a ''token gesture''....i must admit though it is better to watch than the wwe these days...(i think they started to lose the plot about 10 years ago)

Who knows whats going to happen

Former WWF wrestler Tony Halme (better known as Ludvig Borga) was found dead in his home on January 10.

Possibly another death due to drugs.

if true (about drug use) why don't these blokes learn from previous deaths from drugs

Who knows. Maybe they think they can get away with it.

Much of the drug use is due to their lifestyle. Most of them are forever sore and carrying some sort of injury. Many of them don't get breaks for more than a few days (unless they're injured). Jumping on planes all the time, sitting cramped in Economy Class. Performing during the evening and not getting enough sleep. Needing to keep up energy levels to drive to different towns and to work out regularly to maintain their look. Would be very difficult to keep up without some drug usage.

correct i agree without drugs in wrestling then they wouldnt be around. It would be very hard to do what they do IMO

Makes the three strikes thing in WWE a very big joke

Why?

Well they need to take painkillers to perform(other stuff I assume) .And the WWE tests them for painkillers .And they get 3 tests and they are the out.

Jeff Hardy out for a year so he signs with TNA for a year

[Interceptor]

You're talking about a very broad range of products though.

They would be fine to use mild painkillers that aren't prone to abuse (addiction).

Now thats a fine line .Just take my own company 15yrs ago they weren't allowed to have panadol in the first aid kit.Now we have it but everyone who asks for any is written up .Hell 1 day I needed some and had taken 2 four hours earlier my boss almost had kittens when he found out I had already had taken 2 .He stood for about 3 or 4 minutes counting back four hours.

Lucky they don't always watch me when my knee was really bad I'd take my own .2 at 8am and 2 at noon .to get me through the pain day.

So 5days a week for years is that addicted or abuse.
Dont panic I don't need to take them at work these days pre and after only at present.

Well under the WWE would I need to go on the three strikes plan

I believe WWE's policy states guys must have prescriptions for any medication they take, and must pass the 'random' drug tests that are given.

That sounds better Mic .
But its funny that Hardy got suspended for a year so he signs with TNA.
then when the years up back to WWE

Hardy chose to leave WWE. And now that he is on trial for drug trafficking means we probably won't ever see him in WWE again.

You know that's what I thought.Did he really get caught or was that all just wrestling kayfabe ?

He really got caught. Happened a couple weeks after he left WWE.

if it isn't stupidity as you suggest bulldog it would have to be greed...i think it is a combination of both
